v1.1.0

Key Changes

Support for Python 3.12

The SDK officially supports and is tested against Python 3.12.

Support for pathlib.Path()

Thanks to a community contributor David Baumgold we now support pathlib.Path() instead of just strings for both serialization and settings.

Enforce Locals Max Sizes

In this release we have made some significant improvements to how we process large complex stack frames. There were shortening settings that were not properly being applied while truncating large objects. We have resolved those issues and made some other performance improvements to our data processing within the SDK.

We recommend reviewing the locals max sizes settings. The defaults are as follows...

import rollbar

rollbar.init(
    access_token='<your token>',
    locals={
        'sizes': {
            'maxlevel': 5,
            'maxdict': 10,
            'maxlist': 10,
            'maxtuple': 10,
            'maxset': 10,
            'maxfrozenset': 10,
            'maxdeque': 10,
            'maxarray': 10,
            'maxstring': 100,
            'maxlong': 40,
            'maxother': 100,
        },
    }
)

The locals max sizes values were not consistently enforced in versions prior to 1.1.0, and so you may find that data previously included in prior version of the SDK is now being truncated. If that data is vital to your error investigation, you will want to adjust these values.

v1.1.0-alpha

This release fixes a long-standing bug in the shortening logic that prevented it from fully shortening error reports that are two large. Because this can (and most likely will) change what data is reported to the Rollbar platform, we are releasing this as an alpha. We recommend testing it and adjusting the defaults for local variable shortening as needed.

You can fine tune the local sizes by changing the values from the defaults as shown here:

import rollbar

rollbar.init(
    '<your token>',
    '<your environment>',
    locals={
        'sizes': {
            'maxlevel': 5,
            'maxdict': 10,
            'maxlist': 10,
            'maxtuple': 10,
            'maxset': 10,
            'maxfrozenset': 10,
            'maxdeque': 10,
            'maxarray': 10,
            'maxstring': 100,
            'maxlong': 40,
            'maxother': 100,
        }
    }
)

v1.0.0

PyRollbar 1.0.0 is stable! A big thank you to every one of the amazing contributors who helped get us to this point!

Performance Improvements

Some of the major work has been on making performance improvements to the more data intensive parts of the package. There should be some improvements across the board, however some exciting new performance features include:

• A new HTTP transfer mechanism that uses a pool of background worker threads to transmit logs and reports to the Rollbar system. You can enable it with the following...

  rollbar.init('<token>', '<env>', handler='thread_pool')
  # Optionally include `thread_pool_workers` to set the number of worker threads.

• Improved data sanitization and serialization with a batched transform. This can be enabled by setting rollbar.init(..., batch_transforms=True).

  rollbar.init('<token>', '<env>', batch_transforms=True)

Note: performance may vary. For example, the async or another handler may perform better for your environment and workload. We strongly recommend testing before adopting.

Removed Python 2

In version 1.0.0 we have removed support for Python 2. This opens up the opportunity to embrace the ever-improving world of Python 3. If you still require support for Python 2 you should use v0.16.x; it is stable and will continue to receive security fixes for at least another year.
